The animation starts with a pair of {{i|Poké Ball}}s falling in front of bright patterns. In mid-bounce, it cuts to a pair of {{wp|maraca}}s with Poké Ball designs held in front of clouds and being shaken by Brock. It then cuts to a larger shot of him wearing a purple and red outfit with pink frilled sleeves and a {{wp|sombrero}}; he is dancing with the maracas in front of a {{wp|cactus|cacti}} and Diglett pattern. It cuts to a full shot of him dancing on a beach with a pair of Exeggutor. During this whole first segment, all the backgrounds retain a unique woven fabric texture. | The animation starts with a pair of {{i|Poké Ball}}s falling in front of bright patterns.

** ''[[EP243|Same Old Song and Dance]]'', | ** In ''[[EP243|Same Old Song and Dance]]'', Brock performs it continuously for the audience of a "Brittany and the Loony Balloons" concert while {{OBP|Brittany|EP243}}, Ash, and Misty try rescue her Brittany's two {{p|Igglybuff}}, named Gigglybiff and Gigglybuff, from {{TRT}}, to the audience's eventual frustration, until he finally collapses. | ||
** ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'' | ** In ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'', Brock performs the song with his {{TP|Brock|Lombre}} to an audience of children in an emergency intermission at the screening of [[Elijah]]'s {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} film while he, Ash, {{an|May}}, and [[Max]] retrieve his stolen projector from Team Rocket. Once again, it's the only song he has prepared, and the children grow bored by the time he finishes. | ||
** ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'' | ** In ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'', when Lombre is accidentally stolen by Team Rocket at the Shooting Star talent show, Ash, May, Max, and [[Samantha]] go after them. May once again suggests Brock can stall them. Brock asks lovelorn {{AP|Corphish}} to join him for the performance instead. By the time everyone gets back, he's worn out, but the audience reaction is unclear. | ||
** ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'' | ** In ''[[AG184|Strategy Tomorrow - Comedy Tonight]]'', Brock breaks out new lyrics for his performance for the children at a hospital, accompanied by a new dance routine by Corphish. | ||
* | ** In ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'', Brock attempts to distract a group of {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Psyduck}} using the song, dragging {{an|Dawn}} along, wearing the same ensemble, complete with the sombrero and the maracas. Brock initially chants "For! The! Girls!" over and over, but by the time he starts singing the fuller second version, Dawn is visibly confused, and also concerned that the diversion isn't working very well. | ||
** In ''[[JN145|Rocket Revengers!]]'', Brock distracts [[Jessie's Yanmega]] and [[James's Amoonguss]] by having his {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} use {{m|Teeter Dance}} on them while he and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} dance along. The song, however, is replaced in the English dub. | |||
* The PopUp.Version of [[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]] references the song, with a picture of Brock wearing the outfit he uses for the song and dancing with his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. In updated versions of the ending, after Brock wins a [[Pokémon Egg]], he takes a seat in the image and Croagunk is the one dancing instead, complete with Brock's hat, mustache, and maracas. | |||

It is unknown whether this is supposed to be the [[Cerulean Gym]]'s Seel that had evolved into a {{OBP|Dewgong|Cerulean Gym}} in ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]'', another Seel that occupies the Gym (as seen, for example, in ''[[HS05|The Blue Badge of Courage]]''), or merely a fantasy Seel. | ||
* An edited version of the ending with a recolored {{p|Jynx}} is available on [[Prime Video]] in Japan. This version is also used for the airing of [[JN139]]. | |||
